A key bridge that connects the Crimean Peninsula with mainland Russia was gutted in a fire sparked by a car bomb, authorities in Moscow said on Saturday.
Russia's RIA state news agency said that a fuel tank was on fire on the Kerch Bridge, while Ukraine's media reported an explosion. Visuals from the bridge showed some carriages of a train on the Kerch Bridge in Crimea being engulfed in a fire.
Traffic has been suspended on the mad-and-rail bridge.
"An object believed to be a fuel storage tank has caught fire on the Crimean Bridge, but the viaduct's navigable arches sustained no damage, an aide to the head of Crimea, Oleg Kryuchkov, said, as cited by the Russian news agency TASS.
